Tourism Scholarship 2021

Posted: May 5, 2021

The Tourism Industry Association of New Brunswick (TIANB) has actively been involved in career awareness, training and education since its inception.  In 2002 TIANB decided to develop a scholarship program to help students pursue an education and career in tourism.  TIANB recognizes the importance of the education and training of our future industry leaders and has therefore instituted this scholarship program to assist deserving students with their college education.
